this: "because we keep being asked by GNOME upstream and GNOME user to let their desktop alone and ship it as designed so that's what we try to do, we stick to upstream behaviour for GNOME environments and take design decision for Unity", this is BS!
How about all of the Unity users who now are migrating to Gnome desktop and get productivity decrease because of this limiting new behavior (new to us). Why not to create a settings somewhere, can be even opt-in, to use the dialog with screenshot? On unity I hit prntscr button, copy to clipboard and Ctrl+V into Telegram/Slack/Goodle Drive/Pinta/LibreImpress/etc. No files to delte afterwards. Unless I want to save it on disk. Gnome behavior is a downgrade to us unity users. Please give a choice to us also, not just gnome users :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screenshot in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/927952 Title: When I press the Print Screen button, it will not appear in "Save Screenshot" window.

So while you hear a camera sound you have no other confirmation that a screenshot was really taken. Additionally, there is no way of knowing where the screenshot went. I'd imagine this will be particularly problematic for new users of Ubuntu.
